I have two computers one with a wireless network card and one without. Both have nics and I have a crossover cable I have the wireless internet hooked up on the pc with the wireless card. I have the two networked via the crossover cable. Now how do I share the internet connection on the computer without the wireless card???
 
you'll have to use internet connection sharing (ICS). I believe that there is an option for it in the network properties or something. Check out microsoft's website and do a search for ICS. I found out about it this way too, i would tell you how to do it but i really don't remember.

Hope this helps,

Explain your configuration better. Could be a couple of responses to your post with what you've given so far.
 
Okay Well the wireless network is managed by a dlink DI-624 wireless router with DHCP enabled. Both comps are running WINXP PRO and are on the same domain. I went through the network setup wizard on both pcs and tried to get that to work but no joy.
As stated internet works on comp with wireless card as it should, but I can't seem to share the internet connection through the crossover cable.
 
instead of plugging into the computer, why not plug that computer directly to the router and avoid the extra work for connectivity?
